Yes. You are still using gate.demon.co.uk as your smtp gateway.
gate is no longer a smtp gateway, and has not been supported as
such for some time. There are some other changes I'd recommend too.

I'll simply merge my changes in, to make it easier to save and
use. Search for >>SO<< for my changes.

Hope this is of use,
Simon.
